Two-pack replacement for BP-244 radios

This set contains two Kastar MX990 lithium-ion batteries rated at 1900mAh and 7.03Wh each. They replace the original BP-244 pack used in a range of handheld transceivers from Icom, Baofeng, Dynascan, Intek, IWATSU, Maas, SystemGear, Verizon and Yaesu. The cells operate at 3.7V and include built-in protection against over-charge, over-discharge, over-voltage, over-current and over-heating.

Steady output during long transmit sessions

Under continuous use the protection circuit maintains stable voltage without sudden cut-off, so extended talk time on models such as the UV-3R, VX-2R or IC-RX7 remains consistent. The 1900mAh capacity supports longer duty cycles than lower-rated packs, and the safety certifications to UL1642 and CE confirm reliable thermal behaviour during prolonged operation.

Check your radio model before ordering

Verify that your handheld accepts the BP-244 form factor and 3.7V lithium-ion chemistry; some listed devices such as the MET-1000 or VR-160 may require a different pack. Confirm the battery compartment dimensions match the 3 by 2 by 2 inch size and ensure your charger supports lithium-ion cells with integrated protection circuitry.

Questions about this item

Does the Kastar MX990 battery generate noticeable heat during extended transmit sessions?

The lithium-ion cell operates at 3.7 V with built-in over-heating protection, so it stays within safe thermal limits during normal radio use.

What charger must I already own to recharge these MX990 packs?

You need a charger designed for the Icom BP-244 or YAESU FNB-82LI form factor, as the MX990 uses the same contacts and voltage.

Will the MX990 fit my older Yaesu VX-2R without modification?

Yes, the MX990 directly replaces the YAESU FNB-82LI and fits the VX-2R battery compartment exactly.
